Fructose turns to fat quicker than any other sugar- and harms your health in other ways. Pretty much everyone is aware of the fact that high-fructose corn syrup is bad news. But not everyone really understands why. The politically incorrect truth is that high-fructose corn syrup is only marginally worse than regular sugar, a fact that the corn growers association has repeatedly hammered home in their PR efforts to get you to think of high-fructose corn syrup as a relatively benign substance (it’s not). Once you understand what fructose does in the body, you’ll understand that whether it comes from HFCS or regular sugar, it’s still one of the worst things you can ingest. Here’s why: Ordinary table sugar (technically called sucrose) is 50% glucose and 50% fructose. (High-fructose corn syrup is 45% glucose and 55% fructose, not an enormous difference.) But the “bad” part of either substance is the fructose part.

I hope you'll take this into consideration as you read through these posts.

And please read the whole page from top to bottom if you want to get a thorough understanding of the dental issue as it relates to raw foodists. Jameth Sheridan on the high fruit diet I'm not buying Jameth Sheridan's explanation that fruit sugar feeds mouth bacteria better than the sugar in candy ("because fruit sugar is live, it's vital, it has life force... ") His answer to dental decay of "don't eat that much fruit" is not a credible answer to me. And think about this: If you clench your teeth while sleeping, and you loosen teeth thus creating pockets, you will have less dental decay in those pockets if you eat a low sugar / higher fat+complex carb diet. No.

Sleep is vital for health, mood, memory, better thinking, stronger immunity, weight, sex and stress. Dreams are also important to allow our subconscious to express. Science is now uncovering that dreams play a central role in our emotional health, psychological health, our memory, our learning and as a way to help us to find solutions to our problems.

Sleep also may help the human brain get better organized by filing away important memories and discarding unwanted information.
